Sometimes the medals don't show up at first, I think, but it's definitely the POTD today, Alex, and a fine one at that. The colors, lighting and clarity are stunning. What a very beautiful church. Congratulations.

Your dedication to correctly making this awesome creation has truly paid off. Not only did you capture exquisite lighting and twilight colors mirrored in the reflection, but everything is absolutely perfect --composure, sharpness and clarity. The tonality and lighting of both the church and the twilight is magnificent. Congratulations on your well deserved POTD, Alex!!! Hope to see this again in the winner's circle.

Alex, I haven't post a reply to you before (as far as I can remember, lol!) but I have seen and admired your work many times. You approach the scene like an artist, not a guy with gear, and it shows. Thjis is one more example of you gathering a rich pallette of gorgeous light. Well done.

You can feel it in the air, the anticipation of waiting for the awards to arrive. The talent that is on display for all to see and share is amazing. Congratulations to all the January, 2012 winners. Merna
